My top five small business tools – 12 days of Christmas

Notion

No surprise here! You already know I am a massive fan of this app.

Notion is an all-in-one digital workspace that empowered me to figure out my process of creation.

Although it’s not quick to set up (it can be a tad overwhelming at first), it becomes super easy and effective when you have your workflow in place. 

My setup changes as I change and learn how I work best, which is a beautiful evolution to see.

Google Drive

Google Drive is an incredible cloud collaboration tool which is able to connect to many third-party apps.

Although G Drive is less capable than Office Suite, It’s free, fast and I can write, design prototypes, create surveys, automate my data collection, and many more. I don’t think I’m even using it to its fullest potential.

Calendly

Calendly is a powerful automated scheduling tool. It saves me time and improves my service quality. It connects to Google Calendar, Zoom and Stripe, and it sends out the necessary reminders to everyone who books a time.

I can easily set my availability, and it does the rest; this way I make sure I’m not overbooking myself and I can find space for focus and creation.

Grammarly

Grammarly it’s an online grammar checker that makes my writing accurate and precise. It analyzes my writing to check for grammar, punctuation, spelling, and tone.

I love this app because it makes the whole writing process go much faster. Also, I can use it on many different platforms, including Windows and macOS apps, browser extensions and even a phone keyboard.

Even though it falls on the pricier range, they frequently offer subscription discounts.

Zoom

Zoom is an excellent cloud-based video conference tool for desktop and phone that makes it easy to have a meeting with audio, video, and screen sharing.

I love this app because it’s the perfect solution for educational sessions. And because I’m able to record and transcribe meetings with clients.

Thanks to their integrations, it’s easy to schedule and send invitations.

What’s the tool stack are you using in your business?
